French Dirt, The Story of a Garden in the South of France

French Dirt, The Story of a Garden in the South of France

by Richard Goodman

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 2002
  • PAPER
  • 203 PAGES

Uh, oh! Another story of a foreigner (an American this time, with a Dutch girlfriend) transplanted to some quaint location in the south of France. Don't worry, though, this captivating tale, set near Avignon, is noteworthy for Goodman's willingness to work, growing passion for horticulture and his frank portrait of his not-always-so-lovable neighbors.  (FRN417, $13.00)
